Jorir"[1]—which meant "to carry" or "to bear" in Mando'a[3]—was one of the clones of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett who were grown on the planet Kamino to serve in the Grand Army of the Republic. Designated CT-43/76-9155,[1] Jorir and all of his fellow clones were, like Fett, Human males who stood 1.83 meters tall.[1][2] During the Clone Wars, Jorir served the Galactic Republic as a clone trooper major in Squad Seven, a unit of cross-trained clone specialists created by the Alpha-class Advanced Recon Commando Alpha. While Squad Seven was often led in battle by Commanders Cody and Davijaan, Jorir was responsible for the squad's day-to-day operations.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
